Specificity
Glutamate
The cross-reactivities were determined using an ELISA test by competition experiments with the following compounds:
Compound Cross-reactivity
L-Glutamate-G-BSA 1
D-Glutamate-G-BSA 1/>50,000
L-Aspartate-G-BSA 1/>50,000
D-Aspartate-G-BSA 1/>50,000
GABA-G-BSA 1/>50,000
The antisera was also tested for specificity using the free-floating PAP technique on rat cortex.
